With 32 miles of Gulf Coast property, Galveston beaches are a haven for sun worshipers.
For those who want to temper their sun exposure, umbrellas, chairs and outdoor
pavilions are readily available. From May through September the water temperature
stays around 80 degrees, perfect for swimming and other water activities. The
sand is light colored and tan, powdery when dry and when wet compact and
perfect for building sand castles.
Stewart Beach is an ideal place for families and children, with a playground, volley
ball tournaments, and even sandcastle competitions. Add to this a life
size human maze, a mini golf course and bumper boats and you'll have no
trouble keeping your family entertained for hours.
